Something like: if (no_revisions() && !file_exists(path)) die_errno("cannot stat path '%s'", path); _but_ revisions are set up a little bit later. I don't know right now if I could just move it up (I don't think it would be that simple because I see there's some messing up with argv and argc in that 'if' that encloses the lines I'm removing). Maybe it would make sense to move the check for file existence to _after_ revisions have been set up? Even without the check for revisions, it's behaving kind of the way I mean it to. But I'm sure it'd be more elegant if I checked if revisions were provided. 2 It makes sense to create test cases for this patch, right? Looking forward to your comments. Thanks in advance.
